@rhondacareerresetcoach: Somebody described a coworker to me as a ‘walking telenovela’—and I immediately knew EXACTLY who they meant. Every workplace has one. Every Monday, there’s a new episode. A feud. A crisis. Somebody’s not speaking to somebody. Somebody did something to them. They’re quitting. They’re staying. They’re going to HR. They’re never speaking to Karen again. And somehow…everybody in the office knows the storyline. Here’s the workplace literacy lesson: The walking telenovela isn’t just the person creating the drama. Look around. There’s usually an entire supporting cast keeping the show alive. The coworker who listens. The manager who keeps getting pulled in. The people who carry the story from department to department. Workplace literacy means learning to recognize the pattern—without becoming part of the cast. Be honest: Does your workplace have a walking telenovela? And what would you call them? #CareerReset #Work #WomenOver40 #workculture
